“Go do, you’ll learn to
just let yourself fall into landslide. Go do, you’ll learn to just let yourself
give into low tide. Go do!”~Jonsi
I recently heard from one
of my childhood friends from whom i had not heard for about 7 years. He sent me
an email about how he was doing in his life and his success .To my surprise he quoted
some words which I often spoke when I as in touch with him, years ago, to
encourage him.
What were those words??
Never talk about dreams. Dream is the key of developing something you have
actually inherently craved to do. Think of it, actually as a moment of
realizing and and keep doing. In the journey of life there will be instances
when you will fall, trip, feel devastated but it is important that you never
give up and keep going. The motto of life should be to keep going no matter you
fall and get injured. Failures and injuries you face on the path, in life are
the stepping stones to success.
At times we feel that
would we end up doing nothing in life?
Fear grips us as to what to do with life?? We all have dreams,
aspirations and goals in life. We all want our dreams to be fulfilled and goals
to be achieved yet we don’t think of ways of accomplishing them. This is
something we all face at some point in our adulthood and the fear of what’s to come, what may be, holds us
back from simply doing anything. In that way, we find ourselves feeling so
stagnant that depression starts taking hold.
Keep going and keep doing,
cause it is about the journey that you have to create on your own.
Yesterday one of my
friends asked me how to keep moving in life. How to achieve something in life?
How do we keep the balance and keep going following the same daily routine:
enjoying ourselves, hanging out with our friends, getting drunk and living the
life to the fullest .How do we have big dreams, and still obtain them? How do
we experience the day to day? How do we go
do?
We need to eliminate the day-to-day
stresses, hopes, demands, and needs -
‘I was still in fear for
my very own life, whether it was at stake in reality or not.’
We are usually terrified
or ignorant about mending and fixing up things aligning ourselves to morality
cos of our superego; superego is our mental abilities and moral development is
the development of human beings in accordance to what is ethical and what is
socially acceptable. We are so stuck with the future that we forget the
importance of living in the present .When we are in crisis situations even
stressful situations at work or school or at home, our bodies tell us to fight
or fly. But on a more conscious level we most importantly end up denying
ourselves rather than accepting ourselves for who we are. We should not allow
ourselves to think about the stressful situation that we are in but act to go
do.
Life is a string of
present moments, neither past nor future just the present counts. In any case
the movement is the doing and living. We question too much but don’t try hard
to get those questions answered by us. We blame too much but rather we should kill sources of blaming.
We live in the fake world too much that we ignore the reality and the moments
we could cherish from them .Had we not behaved as stagnant pools of water we
might have changed the world till now. At the stake lies happiness, peace ,
inner strength and confidence .
Therefore, it is important
that we recognize every moment to keep moving and to keep going.
It is an oxymoron to be in
the moment and always moving from the moment, but such is life and it is a
truth that cannot be denied if we are in search of peace.
The world is ever moving.
Ever changing.
Living in the moment means
doing or feeling or seeing or recognizing what’s right in front of you. The
important thing is to let yourself experience everything—the good and the
bad—and once you experience it, then you let it pass.
We get caught up in our
pasts because we did not allow ourselves to live those pasts when they were
present. We have to live in the moment so that it can pass. You have to face
your fears, so they too can pass. And since it must pass, we must feel its presence, good or bad, while it
actually is present, for it too will haunt us, for better or for worse.
We so often get caught up
in the stress, the worry, and in some cases, so caught up in avoiding the
danger or fear in front of us, that we forget to just live. It is important we live our lives in way we
always dreamed of as said by my friend ‘ life is given once , enjoy every
moment’ . So why stress on these things lets go on the journey of life and
enjoy it so that when we are gone the pages run out of stock to describe us ...our
lives ..the words go on endlessly to be told to anyone …the memories so hard to
forget that people cannot forget what we did !
So try to balance and stay
on your bike Remember to live each moment, let it pass, but keep moving and
enjoy the next. As Jonsi said, just “go do.”
